A Photographic Competition
and Traveling Exhibition

to Commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the
Saskatchewan Association for Community Living

Fifty Faces will begin in 2004 with a province-wide search for extraordinary photographs of the intimate and inclusive moments in the lives of people with and without intellectual disabilities. These powerful and moving images will be displayed to the public in Saskatchewan throughout the 50th Anniversary year of the SACL in 2005. These captured moments will celebrate the bonds between family and friends and the value and worth of each individual with an intellectual disability throughout the province. These spontaneous glimpses will help the public rejoice in the community, kinship and friendship that exists between people with intellectual disabilities and others.
